“In the landscape of the global Halal industry, guided by ethical principles and dietary laws, this study, authored by Voak, Fairman, and Wahyuni, unfolds a significant narrative. Their work introduces a formative framework designed to cultivate human capabilities within the intricate tapestry of the Halal supply chain. The authors, attuned to the complex challenges faced by individuals operating in this specialized sector, meticulously craft a framework spanning four pivotal dimensions—Assurance, Socio-Cultural and Ethical, Technical and Operational, and Market-Related."
"This structured approach emerges as a beacon for competency development, providing organizations with a roadmap to design effective training programs, assess existing capabilities, and strategically nurture their human resources. The study’s emphasis on resilience stands out, underscoring its commitment to ensuring the Halal supply chain’s ability to deliver high-quality products on a global scale. This dedication to resilience aligns seamlessly with the overarching goal of sustainable growth and prosperity.
Importantly, the authors navigate this journey without compromising the ethical principles inherent in Islamic practices”.
